These DTO coffee shops have a unique footprint of about 800 to 950 SF in improvements, sometimes with drive-throughs on both sides of the building. These sites are typically well-located, with long-term NNN leases in place (10-15 years plus options) along with rent increases throughout the base term. The CAP rates oftentimes trade below Dunkin’ and Starbucks, but the price points are low since the rent are generally lower.
